Right, so I pulled out of the previous GFX round due to not being able to finish on time. Since then I've been working on the image on-and-off and now it's finished only about a week late.

The picture shown below is half the size, the fullsize one can be found by clicking on the picture.

The full resolution pic (1280xs1024) is low quality...the high quality version is 1.1Mb and doesn't fit on photobucket xD Lame. Except I feel justified with the size...this was hand-drawn from start to finish.

I should have tidied up the sketchlines more, but wasn't actually intending to spend this much effort on it. Meh.

For some reason, she looks sunburned.
Anyhow, it looks great as always! Also, ehm, does she have a tattoo? Or am I mistaken?

I am definitely looking forward to seeing the final product.

but its kinda weird with a pig head


I am heartbroken

</3

how does that look like a pig's head!? And on that kind of body!?

It is a character sketch


Not anymore, it ceased to be a sketch the moment I started the cleaned lineart!

Also, ehm, does she have a tattoo?


Yeah, it's not properly drawn in yet but she has a tatt of a flaming 'heartagram' on the left side of the groin, as per the wishes of the character's player!

For the tattoo, draw it in a different file and then copypaste it over on top. It works better than having to draw it out in the drawing itself, and it is easier to adjust and correct.
Also, might as well mention the wheels here as well:
Either got for a flame pattern or at least flame colours, or make them a brighter purple than her corset. Something like this, this or this, depending on what looks best (I haven't checked on file, I probably should...).
A neon type purple/pink might work out as well, if you keep the core a darker, more solid purple, and then let it fade into the neon.

Anyway.

Thanks schmiddy.

Refresh your browser people, the image at the top has been slightly corrected. That is to say, I couldn't stand the horribly warped perspective of Crimson's head any longer. The ears weren't in line with the eyes, which weren't in line with the nose, which wasn't in line with the cheeks... needless to say it was looking too cubist so I fixed it lol. Also added detail on the shades, the corset, the thong and the sash. It's gonna be a while before I finish the jacket, leathers and boots, oh god the boots!

Because I'm taking my sweet time on this piece, I get to look into a whole bunch of features of the brushes at my disposal in SAI. I'm quite pleased with how the denim is turning out:

Not sure what I'll do when it comes to the leather though. I guess I'll just go for shiiiiiny!

Now explain to me how that's a practical outfit.

I refuse.

Because it's not a practical outfit.

Don't you know the first rule of fanservice costuming???

I will do a background next. Then go back and add the appropriate shadows to Crimson once I figure out exactly where the lighting source is. And then I'll put the reflections on the gear.

This makes me feel so out of shape.

I was going to watch more of your videos but it said I needed a password. Will you be willing to give it to me?

They're not really worth watching, though I did post some links back a few pages ago on this thread, so you can access them from there.

Crimson looks good, although I'm really interested in seeing what her tattoo looks like, any chance you could provide a sketch?

Well, you can see a basic sketch of it on this page, just without the text. But I'll finish the detail later.
